在jenkins中配置git存储库

Question

I'm trying to configure the repository: https://github.com/javpaw/game-of-life

into a job in jenkins using git plugin, but when I put the address of the repository: git@github.com:javpaw/game-of-life.git

Source Code Management -> git -> repository Url I got this error:

Failed to connect to repository : Command "/usr/bin/git ls-remote -h git@github.com:javpaw/game-of-life.git HEAD" returned status code 128: stdout: stderr: No protocol specified No protocol specified

(ssh-askpass:18881): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 Host key verification failed. fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I found this question here in github: Why Git fail to connect to local repository with Jenkins (bad config file)?

but was not useful because I'm using Ubuntu 12.04

How can I solve this issue?

thanks.

Answer 1

Try using a complete url, with https rather than ssh:

https://github.com/javpaw/game-of-life

You can also try the read-only address:

git://github.com/javpaw/game-of-life.git

But in both case, the important part is that you specify the protocol ( https:// or git:// )
